Pupils should learn how to plan, test and program a series of instructions in order to create a desired outcome and be able to detect and correct errors that occur.
This statement covers three of the statements in the proposed KS2 Computing curriculum:
design and write programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts.
Use sequence, selection and repetition in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output; generate appropriate inputs and predicted outputs to test programs.
Use logical reasoning to explain how a simple algorithm works and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs.
